Rule 1007 about?

• A. Past recollection recorded.
• B. The original writing is required to prove its contents.
• C. Evidence that a person was insured against liability is not admissible.
• D. Similar to 413 but for child molestation.

Answer: (A)

Rule 1007 allows a witness to prove the content of a writing by using the writing itself when the witness once knew the matter but cannot recall it well enough to testify fully, and the writing was made or adopted by the witness when the matter was fresh. If these conditions are met and the original isn’t produced, the contents of the writing can be admitted to prove what the writing says. This is about getting the content in when memory has faded, not about requiring an original document. The other options point to different rules: requiring the original writing would be Rule 1002; evidence about liability insurance touches Rule 411; and rules like 413/414 deal with evidence of other sexual offenses.
